...Maybe they should put up subtitles.

Both Dec and Kiwi are right, TG, it was an awfully negative approach encompassing an ill-conceived diamond formation against a team who are rampant down both flanks, with two of the best fullbacks and wide forwards in the business.

Anyway, I off to the pub later with my new pool cue, picking up my Jim Davidson tickets on the way.

No need - everybody knows we are sub-title.

Gary Neville on Arsenal's performance today: "It’s the manner of the performance sometimes with Arsenal in the past we’ve been critical of. I’ve not seen that today, they are still going, they’ve not left anything in the changing room, it’s all out there on the pitch."

Meanwhile arsenal fans committing mass suicide and demanding the managers head

As gunnerblog wrote this morning. We were done by errors rather than strategy

If we played Bayern in the same formation people wouldn’t be moaning about the formation. They are just better than us.

Did spurs play the wrong formation againest Newcastle ? Sometimes you simply don’t win and you have to hold your hands up. If he can beat spurs he’s 3 in 4 and many will have egg on their faces.

3rd, ..... we just need 3rd. Everyone knows we can’t win a title yet

Another quote from Former Liverpool left back Alan Kennedy

"#Arsenal have great players, they are just bedding in at the minute. The more they work together, the better they will be. I think they are going to do better than people expected this season."



Arsenal fans after first defeat in 3: sack the entire management team !

Is that what you thought when Bayern beat us 10-2 on aggregate with Wenger in charge? "Oh well they're just 8 goals better than us anyway". Give me a break.

Of course, the first valuable opinion I always turn to is Alan Kennedy rather that watching what I saw in the match.

Well everyone from Neville to the blinking guardian said exactly the same thing. Impressive performance by Liverpool but a far more assured showing from Arsenal than in a long while.

Our fans are the only ones behaving like baby’s and criticising

Is that so?

https://talksport.com/football/592686/u ... p-tactics/

Were third in the league.

The 2 teams above us are miles better than us. So why are our fans moaning ? No matter the set up Liverpool beat us with that makeshift defence.

It looks like spurs are flogging Ericsson for next to nothing which is a massive blow for them. 3rd or 4th is absolutely on !

So why not just enjoy the ride and accept the fact it’s likely we will get stuffed by city and scousers until we strengthen further but 3rd or 4th would be absolutely massive for the club.

Hahahahahaba

Talksport you must be *%^@*** kidding right ?

I won’t even bother reading it. Which pissed up ex player did they get to write the clickbait. Brazil?

So it's the "I won't try to dispute the facts but attack the source routine". Is Brexit part of your next campaign?

No, I'm not having that, Ash, nationality has no bearing on this. Mertesacker is german and Bernard readily admitted he was shite.

Of course, the first valuable opinion I always turn to is Alan Kennedy rather that watching what I saw in the match.

I bet we’d be a damn site better off defensively if Mertesacker was still playing.

Very sad for the fans of Bury https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/49486208

I bet we’d be a damn site better off defensively if Mertesacker was still playing.

Has it gone the wrong way for Bury then? If so, very sad. How about Bolton? A bigger club with lots more fans that I’ve been away to lots of times (and seen us lose at). They’re not comparable to Utd or City but they have a significantly sized fan base. Did they survive if Bury didn’t? Sorry, I did try to google the answer but didn’t find It.

Yesterday's performance was shite, Top Gun. Absolute shite. We are not Burnley, Watford or Brighton. We are Arsenal. We parked the bus to an embarrassing extent. Nobody was suggesting that we should go all out gung-ho attack. But a team can try to compete with a defensive emphasis. Liverpool have arguably the best fullback pairing in world football. Our tactic was to give them all the time and space they wanted while putting no pressure whatsoever on their midfield. Playing oit from the back to an absurd extent against one of the two best teams in world football at pressing high. If we take that approach in our away games against the rest of the top 6 we will be lucky to get anything. Hopefully, we will see a very different performance next weekend.

You're not wrong Bernard.

I said the same a few weeks ago.

With VAR now in operation playing Sokratis and Luis as CBs looks like the equivalent of playing dumb and dumber

Klopp in programme: “I think this current Arsenal team might just be the best yet [that I’ve faced], in terms of quality, and for that reason I think today pitches two of Europe’s best against each other. I think there is zero doubt Arsenal will be even stronger this season."

"They have recruited amazing talent this season... It's a complete nonsense if you don't view this Arsenal, with this manager, as being one of the best teams in the country."


Arsenal fans : *%^@ off back Basque Country Emery

Well everyone from Neville to the blinking guardian said exactly the same thing. Impressive performance by Liverpool but a far more assured showing from Arsenal than in a long while.

*%^@ Bolton, I hope their ground gets turned into a massive cash n carry or the worlds largest Kentucky chicken

Kicked us all over the park in 93 at the request of sir Alex, we had 3 players taken off injured and cost us the title.

*%^@ them, I hope they go under will saviour every last tear from their fans

Maybe you're having a bad day Top Gun, but I completely disagree with you here. A football club formed in 1874, founder members of the football league in 1888, a club with a long and rich history. It would be a great shame to see them go under.
Good luck to the club and their supporters in finding a solution to their current predicament.

Klopp was obviously taking the piss, Top Gun. I imagine him roaring with laughter when writing that.

Also very sad to hear another famous old club and past FA cup winners Bury have been expelled from the League.
With the obscene amounts of money flying around the top echelons of the game it is deeply depressing.

Produced a chuckle

I was going to reply similar Decaf ......... TG putting this forward as proof we are okay .

WHEN would Klopp ever speak the truth about any team in the programme notes ..... something like this team is a total shower of shei***t with a defense as porous as a lump of pomice , their manager hasn't got a f**&&^%$# clue ....
No , no , no every team faced from Norwich , Southampton , Carlisle to Middlesboro Ironside will full of talented individuals , and Pool are expecting a difficult match .

Showing you are a bit of a movie buff flashing around references to Abbott and Costello , the Three Stooges ....or are they currently playing in South African cinemas
